Young musicians from Washington County gather Saturday night at The Maryland Theatre in downtown Hagerstown to perform with the Middle School and High School All County Bands.

The high school band was led by guest conductor Dr. Harlan D. Parker, conductor of The Peabody Wind Ensemble and coordinator of the Music Education Division at the Peabody Conservatory of Music in Baltimore.

The middle school band's guest conductor was Lynn Zeller, a retired band director from Allegany County.

The high school band's performance was also to include the premier of a new composition from Hagerstown resident Michael Mogensen, who wrote "Sierra Dawn."
